Introducing Impressions at Netflix
Briefly

Netflix utilizes image impressions, which are critical data points captured as users browse the platform, to create a personalized viewing experience. By tracking these interactions, Netflix can maintain a detailed history for each user profile, allowing for tailored recommendations based on user engagement. The process includes handling challenges, implementing frequency capping to avoid content overexposure, and monitoring new releases. This innovative approach empowers Netflix to continually adjust its merchandising strategies to maximize user satisfaction and engagement with fresh content.
Every image you hover over isn't just a visual placeholder; it's a critical data point that fuels our sophisticated personalization engine.
It requires a state-of-the-art system that can track and process these impressions while maintaining a detailed history of each profile's exposure.
